Depression is considered a factor that interferes with HIV prevention. Depression may reach 41% among low‐income Chilean women. Depressed people are less willing to participate in behaviours that protect them against HIV. The aim of this study is to analyze the impact of <jats:italic>Mano a Mano‐Mujer</jats:italic> (<jats:italic>MM‐M</jats:italic>), and HIV prevention intervention, on depressive symptoms among Chilean women. A quasi‐experimental design was used for this study. The research was conducted in Santiago, Chile; a total of 400 women participated in the study (intervention group, <jats:italic>n</jats:italic> = 182; control group, <jats:italic>n</jats:italic> = 218). The intervention was guided by the social‐cognitive model and the primary health care model. The intervention consists of six 2‐h sessions delivered in small groups. Sessions covered: HIV prevention, depression, partner's communication, and substance abuse. Face‐to‐face interviews were conducted at baseline and at 3‐month follow‐up. Chilean women who participated in <jats:italic>MM‐M</jats:italic> significantly decreased, at 3 months follow up, their reported depressive symptoms. <jats:italic>MM‐M</jats:italic> provided significant benefits for women's depression symptoms. In this study nurses participated as leaders for the screening of depressive symptoms and as facilitators of community interventions.</jats:p></jats:sec>4Scopus© Citations 6 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Intimate Partner Violence and HIV Risk Behaviors Among Socially Disadvantaged Chilean Women(2011) ;Sarah Miner ;Lilian Ferrer ;Rosina Cianelli ;Margarita Bernales<jats:p> The objective of this study was to determine if a relationship exists between intimate partner v iolence (IPV) and HIV risk among socioeconomically disadvantaged Chilean women. A correlational analysis with data from the NIH-funded project, “Testing an HIV/AIDS Prevention Intervention for Chilean Women,” was conducted. Two hundred and sixty-one women were included in this analysis ( n = 261). Those women who had experienced any type of IPV in the past 3 months had significantly higher risk for HIV than those who had not ( t = -2.016, p < .05). Also a linear trend was found among those women who had experienced more than one type of IPV in the past 3 months and HIV risk. </jats:p>6Scopus© Citations 11 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Highly active antiretroviral therapy discontinuation time is associated with therapeutic failure among human immunodeficiency virus (<scp>HIV</scp>)‐infected immigrant adults: A cohort study from a Peruvian referral hospital during the Venezuelan exodus(2023) ;Kirbeliz Rebolledo‐Ponietsky ;Ali Al‐kassab‐Córdova ;Aldo Lucchetti‐Rodríguez; Alfonso J.

We included Venezuelan immigrants who restarted HAART and were followed over at least 6 months. The primary outcome was TF. Secondary outcomes were immunologic (IF), virologic (VF) and clinical (CF) failures. The exposure variable was HAART discontinuation, categorised as no discontinuation, less than 6 months, and 6 months or more. We applied generalised linear models Poisson family with robust standard errors to calculate crude (cRR) and adjusted (aRR) relative risks by statistical and epidemiological criteria.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results</jats:title><jats:p>We included 294 patients, 97.2% were males, and the median age was 32 years. Out of all the patients, 32.7% discontinued HAART for less than 6 months, 15.0% discontinued for more than 6 months and the remaining 52.3% did not discontinue. The cumulative incidence of TF was 27.9%, 24.5% in VF, 6.0% in IF and 6.0% in CF. Compared with non‐discontinued HAART patients, the discontinuation for less than 6 months (aRR = 1.98 [95% CI: 1.27<jats:bold>–</jats:bold>3.09]) and from 6 months to more (aRR = 3.17 [95% CI: 2.02<jats:bold>–</jats:bold>4.95]) increased the risk of TF. Likewise, treatment discontinuation of up to 6 months (aRR = 2.32 [95% CI: 1.40<jats:bold>–</jats:bold>3.84]) and from 6 months to more (aRR = 3.93 [95% CI: 2.39<jats:bold>–</jats:bold>6.45]) increased the risk of VF.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions</jats:title><jats:p>HAART discontinuation increases the probability of TF and VF in Venezuelan immigrants.</jats:p></jats:sec>10Scopus© Citations 2 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
